Read the following passage and answer the questions
11 to 15:

All political
systems need to mediate the relationship between private wealth and public
power. Those that fail risk a dysfunctional government captured by wealthy
interests. Corruption is one symptom of such failure with private
willingness-to-pay trumping public goals. Private individuals and business
firms pay to get routine services and to get to the head of the bureaucratic
queue. They pay to limit their taxes, avoid costly regulations, obtain
contracts at inflated prices and get concessions and privatised firms at low
prices. If corruption is endemic, public officials - both bureaucrats and
elected officials - may redesign programmes and propose public projects with
few public benefits and many opportunities for private profit. Of course,
corruption, in the sense of bribes, pay-offs and kickbacks, is only one type of
government failure. Efforts to promote 'good governance' must be broader than
anti-corruption campaigns. Governments may be honest but inefficient because no
one has an incentive to work productively, and narrow elites may capture the
state and exert excess influence on policy. Bribery may induce the lazy to work
hard and permit those not in the inner circle of cronies to obtain benefits.
However, even in such cases, corruption cannot be confined to 'functional'
areas. It will be a temptation whenever private benefits are positive. It may
be a reasonable response to a harsh reality but, over time, it can facilitate a
spiral into an even worse situation.
